Audrey

Ok, I admit it: Audrey Hepburn and I were never on a “first name basis” and she never sat for me to draw.  That would be a big pretend.  Source material for this was a book of portrait photography and this particular photographer was Yousuf Karsh.  Here’s a quote of his that I especially love:

“There is a brief moment when all that there is in a man’s mind and soul and spirit may be reflected through his eyes, his hands, his attitude.  This is the moment to record.  This is the elusive moment of truth.”

Brilliant.
